BIG FIGHT PLANNED OlliTIOITSTRUSTS Association of Attorney Generals Decides to Outline A Definite Plan.

ALL STATES ARE INCLUDED. ATTORNEY GENERAL BINGHAM OF INDIANA IS A MEMBER OF THE COMMITTEE TO PREPARE THE PROGRAM. St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 2 Action that ;wlll have far-reaching effect in antitrust and corporation litigation, and which will bear fruit in almost every state in the Union, was taken by thf convention of attorney generals in itr final session here. A committee war appointed to draft a scheme of anti trust legislation to be sent to all attorney generals, and a resolution was adopted which is expected to remove a thorn in the flesh of the state officers the interference by Federal Circuit Courts with the operation of state laws. Permanent organization was also effected, under the name of National Association of Attorney Generals of the United States, and a united front will be presented in legal actions brought by different states against the same corporation or trust. Bingham Is Honored. The following were chosen as officers: President. II. S. Hadley of Missouri: secretary and treasurer, William H. Dickson of Colorado. President Hadley appointed as the committee to draft a plan for antitrust legislation the following: R. B. Davidson of Texas, James Bingham of Indiana. Wade Ellis of Ohio, F. 3. Jackson of Kansas, R. V. Fletcher cf Mississippi and S. M. Clark of South Dakota. President Hadley also announced that with two or three exceptions all the attorney generals in the Union had expressed a desire to participate In the future proceedings of the association, and in any course of action that might be decided upon. The first set address today was the paper by Attorney General Dana Malone of Massachusetts on the topic, "Capitalization of Public Service Corporations." ( Attorney General Jackson was detained in New York, and in his absence his paper on "State Regulation of Public Utilities" was read by Attorney General Dickson of Colorado. The closing paper of the day was by Attorney General Wade Ellis on the "Standard Oil Trusts." The resolutions adopted maintain that the dual form of government requires that each sovereignty exercise its functions unhampered by the other, and asks congress to pass a law that will prevent federal courts from interfering with the action of any state court, board or officer in the enforcement of the laws of that state. S Pet of the Hoshour Family Dies From Bad Dose. Milton, Ind., Oct. 2 Spot, the pet dog belonging to Samuel Hoshour's family, was poisoned and died from the effects Tuesday. The dog's death was much regretted by the children as he was a great pet. A few days ago a hunting dog belonging to Will Miller for which he was offered $75 was also poisoned but is recovering from the effects. ADVERTISED "COMPLETED Jamestown Exposition Management Keeps Very Busy.

ROOSEVELT PLEASES ST. LOUIS PEOPL

WITH HIS SPEECH (Continued Fom Page One.) sources under the supervision of and by the aid of the federal government. Not Asking Extension. In closing his address, the president said: I am not pleading for an extension of constitutional power. I am pleading that constitutional power which already exists shall be applied to new conditions which did not exist when the constitution went into being. I ask that the national powers already conferred upon the national government by the constitution shall be ?o used as to bring national commerce and industry effectively under the authority of the federal government and thereby avert industrial chaos. My plea is not to bring about a condition of centralization. It is that the government shall recognize a condition of centralization in a field where it already exists. When the national banking law was passed it represented in reality not centralization, but recognition of the fact that the country had so far advanced that the currency was already a matter oi national concern and must be dealt with by the central authority at Washington. ' So it is with interstate industrialism and especially with the matter of interstate railroad operation today. Centralization has already taken place in the world of commerce and industry. All I ask is that the national government look this fact in the face, accept it as a fact, and fit itself accordingly for a policy of supervision and control over this centralized commerce and industry. TAGGART FORCES TO PUT KUHN OUT OF THE CONTEST (Continued From Page One.) the highest terms of the reception accorded him at Richmond, where he addressed the Commercial club night before last, and of the evidences of prosperity and progress he witnesses there. He visited the principal buildings, including Earlham college and Reid Memorial church and was much impressed with what he saw. The prohibitionists propose to begin their state campaign early next year. The prohibition state executive committee, at a meeting at the Claypool hotel last night, decided that it would be the best policy to hold the prohibi tion convention before either of the old party conventions and to force the fight. It is probable that a "tent campaign" will be conducted with half a dozen tents in use in various parts of the state simultaneously. The pro hibition state committee will meet about Dec. 1 to arrange the details of the state campaign. FELL BY THE WAYSIDE AND ASKED FOR MERCY A, Traveling Man Takes Up With Bad Companions. CRIES IN POLICE COURT. A traveling man, a veteran of the Spanish-American war, fell in with some of his army comrades Tuesday night and at 11 o'clock was found by the police dead to the world. He plead guilty in the city court to a charge of intoxication. The drummer was overcome by his emotions and between loud sobs he informed acting Judge Freeman that he had never been arrested before and that if his name got into the papers he would lose all his local trade, his wife's affections and, in all probability, his job. He was fined $1 and costs, then turned over to the reporters. In pleading to have his name kept out of the papers the traveler tapped some more tears and the newspaper men were so overcome by his tale of woe that they joined with the sobbing salesman in "a good old cry," and, voices shaking with emotion, promised to keep his nare a secret from the cruel, hardhearted public. Strange to say, none of the traveler's war companions came to the rescue of their fallen comrade. ONLY ROUTINE BUSINESS. The monthly business meeting of Grace M. E. church was held Tuesday night at the church. Only routine matters occupied the attention of the church board. Four deaths are known to be directly attributable to exposure to the Xrays. There is a mystery about these cases, the disease being unknown to medical science, though it is believed to involve some principle of life. Dr. Weigel, the president of the Rochester Academy of Medicine and the American Orthopedic Society was the last victim. ARRANGING FOR A FAIR. ViUon. Ind., Oct 2 The ladies of '. E. church will hold a fair, Oct. 1 26.

CONSTERNATION ON AMONGTHE LOOTERS

Men Who Have Wrecked Railway Companies at New York City Alarmed. ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTS. A GREATER SENSATION THAN WAS CAUSED BY THE INSURANCE EXPOSE IS EXPECTED AS THE RESULT. New York, Oct. 2 Consternation prevails today among the looters of the New York City and Metropolitan Railways as a result of the attorney general's action for receivership and personal accounting from the officials for fraud and extravagance. In 1902 nearly a million dollars was paid to lawyers for no particular purpose. A number of other shady transactions were also uncovered. A greater sensation than the insurance expose is expected. LOYND NOW HELD AT THE CITY JAIL Sheriff Meredith Refused to Accept Him and This - Place Was Secured. HOSPITAL WILL PAY BILLS. IT WAS NOT FOUND POSSIBLE TO SECURE A TRAINED NURSE TO ATTEND LOYND, AS NO ONE WANTED THE JOB. David Loynd, the insane man who has been confined at Reid hospital and who Sheriff Meredith refused to admit to the county jail on the grounds that he was not dangerously insane, despite the verdict of the inquest board which declared him to be "violent," is now confined in the woman's department of.the city jail. Tuesday afternoon several members of the hospital board of trustees called at the county jail and again petitioned Sheriff Meredith to admit Loynd to that institution. Sheriff Meredith again informed these officials that he is not running an insane asylum and that he positively would not admit Loynd. because he did not believe the man to be violently and dangerously insane. Sheriff Meredith stated that he and Turnkey Harris had just recently been relieved of the care of an insane man who was too weak to care for himself, and that he did not intend being burdened with the care of another such inmate. Not Wanted at Home. The hospital authorities called at the Loynd home in the south end of town and asked the family to admit Loynd to the home and care for him, but the family refused to assume the responsibility. As a last recourse arrangements were made to have Loynd cared for at the city jail and he was taken there Tuesday evening. John L. Rupe and George Eggemeyer, of the hospital board of trustees, informed Chief Bailey that as long as Loyna was confined at the city jail they would personally guarantee all the expenses incurred in caring for him. Chief Bailey was told that a trained nurse could be secured for Loynd. An effort was made to get a man to care for the unfortunate who has been the object of so much contention, but this man state that he would not care for an insane man. Patrol Driver Remmert is now acting in the day time as Loynd's nurse. At nights Roundsman Leroy Edwards cares for him whenever Edwards happens to be at the city building. Loynd is not strapped to a bed at the city jail as he was at the hospital and the police state that since his confinement in the city jail he has caused no trouble. Loynd is allowed to move about his apartment. He has shown no violent symptoms since being placed in the city jail and Tuesday night he did not yell once. The hospital authorities state that they do not shirk the responsibility of caring for Loynd. but that it was imperative that he was removed from the hospital, because his incessant howling disturbed the patients. All the expenses of caring ror Loynd V the cty jail will be met by the hospital. Township Trustee Potter has been called upon to investigate Loynd's case to see if the township cannot make some provision for caring for the unfortunate man. LOSES HORSE WORTH $225. Economy, Ind.. Oct. 2. W. E. Oler lost a horse valued at $225 Sunday afternoon. A Swiss engineer has perfected a new fire escape. It consists of a series of folding iron ladders. Each ladder reaches from one window to the next one below it.

greater portion of his salary while pastor of St. Mary's church in this city, was spent for charitable purposes, principally aiding the poor. The sweet spirit of the man won the hearts of all those with whom he came in contact, and the news of his death caused much regret Early in the spring of the present year Father McMulIen expressed the wish to his more intimate friends in Richmond, Michael Eagen, Michael O'Brien. John McCarthy and John Harrington, that he be buried in Richmond wnen his earthly services were ended. He devised the plan of converting the circle at St. Mary's cemetery into a priests' burial ground and also desired to give tne greater part of his earthly means towards the erection of a monument and the decoration of the plaza. According to Father McMullen's wishes, and under the direction of Michael Eagen. the superstructure was started and now is completed. The figure on the monument will be a representation of the crucifixion, a design which Father McMulIen desired. This will cost several hundred dollars. He was to have been brought to Richmond later in the year that he might see the transformation at St. Mary's cemetery, wrought by his own means. He will be buried directly facing the front drive entering the cemetery and at the base of the monument. According to a notice sent to all of the clergy in the diocese of Indianapolis, the funeral obsequies will be held at Highland on Thursday morning. The office of the dead will be chanted by the assembled bishops and priests, and the requiem mass will be sung at 10 o'clock, after which the remains will be brought to this city for final obsequies and interment. The body will be at St. Mary's church all Thursday night and the funeral and burial will be Friday morning in St. Mary's cemetery. Michael Eagen and John J. Harrington have gone to Vincennes to accompany the body to this city. TUFT POMG OIL ON WARLIKE JAPS Secretary of War Has His Salve Box Working on His Trip Abroad. APPEAL TO JAP VANITY. HOWEVER, THE ORIENTALS WILL NOT DISCONTINUE THE WORK OF CONSTRUCTING WAR VESSELS. Tokio, Oct. 2. Secretary Taft is fast gaining the reputation of being the boss peace emissary and it is laughingly remarked about the clubs and cafes that he evidently brought across the big pond with him a whole aviary filled with the white-winged doves of peace and a shipload of palliative ointment, for the corpulent secretary has not lost a single opportunity since his arrival a few days ago to "soft soap" the natives and "spread the salve" of perpetual friendship and universal tranquility. When the war secretary first stepped from the gang plank of the big ship that brought him 1o these shores he gave the positive assurances that ; he came to talk peace and talk it he has. At banquets, at informal dinners, in newspaper interviews and in private and public utterances, peace has rung in the ears of those that would lend him their ears. Taft Tickles Their Vanity. It must not be understood that the Japanese do not take to those words of friendly greeting or to the reference to their wonderful progress and great achievements, for, like their western brothers, they are susceptible and it all tickles their vanity, but, while this is true with the great unthinking masses, it is not so much so with the statesmen, the professional men and those that have given the affairs of the government any considerable attention. Last night Secretary Taft was the guest at a dinner of H. Percival Dodge, the assistant secretary of the American Embassy. Covers were laid for thirty persons and the war secretary made a short speech in which he commended the friendship of the two nations with just as much fervor as on his previous utterances. Banquet a Brilliant Affair. The banquet given to" the visitor from across the seas was, perhaps, the most important function that will be tendered him during his stay, and the much-feted peace emissary was greeted with applause when he told his fellow diners that war between the United States and Japan would be "a crime against civilization." The banquet was given by the municipality and the chamber of commerce and was attended by Japan's prominent statesmen, including the members of the cabinet. Secretary Taft began his address by giving thanks for his welcome ana the evidence of good will . shown. He i

For the first time this season we call your special attention to the famous "Mallory" Cravenette Hat. You'll see some on display in our hat window, but to really appreciate the beauty of these head pieces it's necessary to try them on in front of a mirror where the eyes can see the advantage of wearing the popular priced Mallory. The other day we heard a fellow say: "I bet the Mallory hat will have a lower crown this Fall." True. Good guess. They are a trifle lower, but how different. The brims are lighter and possess the curl of smartness real New York. There are Derbies, Alpines, Crushers, Opera and Silk Hats. Come in, please and try on a few.

then referred to Japan's recent war and said the Americans were proud that Mr. Roosevelt, with the prestige of the American presidency, hastened a peace that was honorable to both Japan and Russia. Secretary Taft spoke of Japan's great progress, the share America has had in aiding it, and said Americana were proud of Japan, which has always had the cordial sympathy of the United States. This brought the secretary down to the recent reports of friction and he said: "Now, for the moment, there is only a little cloud over our friendship of fifty years, but the greatest earthquake of the century could not shake our amity. I do not intend to consider details. I can not trespass upon the jurisdiction of the department of state and discuss the events in San Francisco, but I can say that there is nothing in them that is incapable of the honorable and full adjustment by ordinary diplomats." VOICES FROM THE SEA. Common Phrases That Have Had Thelp Origin Aboard Ship. It Is remarkable what a number of common expressions in use every day come to us from the sea. You grumble at a third party for "shoving in his nar" in a conversation. A friend inquires after your health. "Oh, first rate, thanks!" you reply, using a term derived from the days of old wooden line of battle ships. Probably each of Cs knows of some one who is "sailing nnder false colors." Politicians are not infrequently "thrown overboard" by their party when they disappoint expectations. We call tall buildings "skyscrapers." a term originally purely nautical. "Close quarters" Is a very common expression, which, like "first rate," dates from the .time of wooden fighting ships. The "quarters" were protections erected along the bulwarks behind which sailors coukl lie low and which were used to help to repel boarders. There are others, too "half seas over," for Instance, and ''high and ".ry." Honest men are said to be Viboveboard." We call a good for nothing man a "derelict," and we urge people to go "full 6peed ahead" on all occasions when we mean there i3 need for haste. A young man named Tom Barker was boating on the Eden at Kirby Stephen recently, when he saw an otter in the water and struck at it with his oar. The otter jumped into the boat and attacked him, but Barker after a, severe tussle, killed it. The otter was a female and its family was nesting in the neighborhood. London Graphic v

Due to defective signals and fog, two traction cars crashed together on the Steubenville and Toronto line this morning. Motorman Noah Adams had a leg broken and was internally injured and will die. Motorman Keohn Durr was slightly hurt. Twenty passengers were slightly injured. SHAPED ALMOST ALIKE. Striking Similarity In Contour Between Itfily &nd New Zealand. Saving only for the fact that one Is a peninsula and the other a group of islands by far the most striking similarity in contour exists between Italy and New Zealand. The resemblance of each of them to a high heeled Wellington boot Is almost perfect Cape dell Arml and Cape Reinga form the toes of the two boots. The bay of Plenty, in New Zealand, and the gulf of Taranto. in Italy, form the instep, while Cape Runaway and Cape Santa Maria di Leuco are respectively the points of the heels. The general shape of the calf of the le? Is also the same and so Is the turve outward to the somewhat gouty looking toe. The point of dissimilarity Is of course the separation of North and South islands Into two. It is easy, however, to see that if these two island were somewhat raised they would become one and would then even more resemble the Italian peninsula than they do now. A comparison of the islands of Ireland nrrl Sardinia will also show several points of resemblance, but this is nothing like striking as it 13 In the case of the twe wldeiy separated portions of the world above mprv'" GLEVELAMDJSJMPROVIlie He Is Able to Leave the House For a Ride.
